Is it possible to keep the map from repeating horizontally? For my map, it does not represent a planet or spherical world, so having it repeat horizontally forever doesn't make sense at all. I have figured out how to simply not load tiles for the repeated maps on the left and right like so:
HOWEVER, when you create markers, the markers still show up for all the repeated maps:
Is it possible to keep the markers from repeating? Or is it possible to keep the map from repeating at all? That way I don't have to deal with markers repeating?
Work Around: Limit Panning beyond the Map Bounds I've read various work-arounds that discuss simply limiting how far the user can pan to the left or right. This won't work for me because I have to allow the user to zoom all the way out and view the entire map at once. If they zoom all the way out, repeated markers are still visible, which is unacceptable.
Is it possible to adding a bunch of padding to the map? That way there is a large amount of space between the maps:
If I was able to a
